Ali, my father, passed away on 8 July after a road accident. He was 57 years old. He was the heart of our family and had no savings or life insurance. The funeral home has given us a quote of $2,050 and the cemetery needs payment before the burial date of 13 July. I have already used what I had for the hospital bills. My family is scattered, and many of us are out of work. We want Ali to have a dignified farewell. Any help at all means a lot, and so do your prayers. Anything left over after the funeral will be donated to a neighborhood youth program. Where the $2,050 goes: • Funeral home services and casket: $1,200 • Cemetery plot and burial fees: $580 • Transport of the deceased: $90 • Memorial gathering for the family: $180 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

            Hang in there. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Mbale.

            • Sending strength, Rania. Your post was clear and honest. I hope September is when things finally get easier. Blessings.
